NAAEE’s Affiliate Network has launched its 2025 #OutsideFor5 Campaign! Getting students outdoors is more important than ever—just a few minutes outside can boost their confidence, creativity, focus, and cooperation. The #OutsideFor5 Campaign is designed to make outdoor learning easy and rewarding.
We know the Chesapeake Network has deep connections with teachers, administrators, parents, and others across the country who are passionate about learning outdoors. Please help us spread the word using the email template below and encourage people from your state to get #OutsideFor5 to LEARN this April!
#OutsideFor5 Sample Email/Newsletter Text
As a teacher, YOU inspire, guide, and empower your students every day, and nature can be a powerful partner in helping you do that. Whether it’s a forest, a city park, or just outside your school building, nature offers endless opportunities to enhance your teaching and support your students’ learning and well-being.
During the month of April, we invite you to sign up to learn more about how to:
Incorporate an outdoor lesson or activity at least 5 minutes a day, 5 days a week, or any meaningful amount of time.
Use your current school curriculum and apply it to outdoor activities.
Connect with other educators and professionals who engage in outdoor learning experiences.
We know you juggle a lot in your day, so we are here to provide YOU with the tools, inspiration, and support to bring the benefits of nature into YOUR classroom! Sign up today to receive FREE resources and inspiration to help you take learning outside—whether it’s 5 minutes a day or whatever works for you! Learn more and sign up at www.outsidefor5.com
